Gilded Lies

An actor with a secret & an ex with a vendetta collide when anomalous abilities unravel their lies.

John is a famous actor with an unusual, hidden ability—and a contractual obligation to keep his queer relationship out of the public eye. Others with secret abilities stay hidden, but when one is kidnapped for experimentation, John only has one contact who can help: his ex.

Licia discovered emotions could kill when, as an orphaned teenager, she empathically murdered an abuser. Now she dedicates herself to keeping vulnerable young people safe. Until John calls. Nothing good comes from him, and this time it's worse.

As John's secret relationship strains under the tension of Licia's presence and their rescue plans face complications, he is faced with two options: come out of one closet and expose his kind to save them, or come out of the other closet to keep his secrets and save the man he loves.

Both will cost him his career, his reputation, and possibly his life. But if he does neither, the people he swears to protect will pay the price.
